type IDisposable
returns this if a new strong reference has been acquired, null if this object is already being disposed.
inherited Disposable.AcquireTry

Remarks:

The object will not be actually disposed by calls to Dispose when there is at least one strong reference left. Code that calls the AcquireTry method is responsible for calling the Dispose method accordingly.

This method is not intended to be used in performance-critical code. It should only be used to high-level resource management.

ChildAdd

Adds a child component to this container, using its current layout settings.

public override method ChildAdd ([Owner] Component component)
params component [not-null] The child component.
overrides Container.ChildAdd

Adds a child component to this container using the given layout settings.

public override method ChildAdd ([Owner] Component component, Layout layout)
params component [not-null] The child component.
  layout The layout settings to use. Unspecified settings will be taken from LayoutDefault.
overrides Container.ChildAdd

ChildAny

Checks if this container has any children.

[Pure]
public override method ChildAny (bool onlyVisible)
type bool
params onlyVisible true to test for non-hidden (see Hidden) children only, false to test for existing children.
returns true if there are one or more children (according to onlyVisible), false if not.
overrides Container.ChildAny

ChildRemove

Removes a child component from this container.

public override method ChildRemove (Component component)
params component [not-null] The child component.
overrides Container.ChildRemove

ChildRemoveAll

Removes all child components from this container.

public method ChildRemoveAll ()

public method ConsumeInput (InputEvent inputEvent)
type bool
params inputEvent The user input event.
returns true if the input event has been consumed, false if not.
inherited Component.ConsumeInput

Input events are provided to an IInputConsumer object only if it has the input focus (see FocusGained and FocusLost). Mouse events are provided when the mouse cursor is inside of the input bounds (MouseEnter and MouseLeave). The Closing event can be provided at any time.

  1. FocusGained: gained input focus
  2. Keyboard events:
  3. Mouse events:
    1. MouseEnter
    2. Mouse events:
    3. MouseLeave
  4. FocusLost: lost input focus
  5. Closing: user request to shut down

Dispose

Releases all resources held by this object if there are no more strong references to it, decrements the reference counter by one otherwise.

[Dispose, OwnerThis, ThreadSafe]
public method Dispose ()
inherited Disposable.Dispose

Remarks:

The Dispose method silently returns if the object has already been disposed.

Find

Finds the first Panel along the ancestor-to-self axis, starting at the given component.

[Pure]
public static method Find (Component component)
type Panel
params component The component to start or null.

public method Render2D (Graphics g)
params g [not-null] The graphics object to use.
inherited Component.Render2D
